This compact one-bedroom end-of-terrace offers straightforward, low-maintenance living in a convenient Leighton Buzzard location. Set over two floors, the layout places the bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor with the lounge and kitchen/diner above, making efficient use of its 499 sq ft. The property is freehold and includes a small courtyard garden plus an allocated off-street parking space.
Built around 1996–2002 and fitted with double glazing, the house sits in an affluent, family-oriented area with a long list of local amenities, good schools and fast broadband — strong practical benefits for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor. Council tax is described as cheap and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and connectivity.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is from an oil-fired boiler and radiators, which can mean higher running and delivery costs compared with mains gas. The accommodation is compact with modest room sizes and some low ceiling sections in the living area; the multi-storey layout means steps between floors, which may not suit mobility needs. The plot is small, so outdoor space is limited to the courtyard.
Overall this is a practical, ready-to-live-in property that suits someone seeking an affordable, well-connected starter home or rental unit. It offers sensible space, parking and outside space for the price, but factor in oil heating costs and the compact footprint when viewing.
